Catterick’s season over Jumps continues with a seven-race programme this Friday (January 30), which is set to begin at 1-10 p.m. with a Novices’ Handicap Hurdle race for stayers over the extended three miles and one furlong.

 The feature race, The New Racing UK Anywhere Available Now Handicap Chase, is contested over two and three furlongs and offers prize money of £12,000. The European Breeders’ Fund supports a race for Novice Hurdlers – a qualifying contest in a national series under the auspices of the EBF – which culminates in a Final at Sandown Park in March.

 The giant screen, situated opposite the main stands, will enable racegoers to enjoy even more of the action. There is a shuttle bus service from Richmond town centre prior to racing and returning after the last race. 

  • Two big race winners at Doncaster last Saturday – Intense Tango (successful in the Grade 2 Mares Hurdle) and If In Doubt (the winner of the £75,000 Sky Bet Chase) – both went into these races having won last time out at Catterick.
